While I was on holiday last week we announced Tech Days. Tech Days is shaping up to be something rather good. It is a week-long series of free events run by Microsoft and technical communities to

“Celebrate and inspire developers, IT professionals and IT Managers to get more from Microsoft technology”  

You can attend for 1 day or all 5 days. You can just attend the developer days or mix it up with the IT Pro days. It is entirely up to you.

I will be doing my bit delivering sessions on Azure, Entity Framework 4 and Parallel. I hope to see you there.

Register now at https://www.microsoft.com/uk/techdays.
